The Names of the Nazgul (I.C.E.)
In Middle Earth CCG what were the names of the Nazgul? I can remember:
The Witch King of Angmar Khamul the Easterling Wraw of Waw Adunaphel the Silent Akhorahil the Seer Ren the Unclean Unvatha the Horseman Indur Dawndeath Who's the ninth? (Well, obviously Adunaphel is the ninth but who have I missed off?) Also, does anyone know who (apart from kings) they were? I couldn't find any reference to the ringwraiths in the sil or the appendices of LotR as to where they came from (Except the Witch King). |

They were Kings and Sorcerors, from what I've read.
Three were of the Black numenoreans and the rest were probably of the races from the south and east. Dont forget the Nazgul Queen, though!

It's Hoarmurath of Dir.

The names were invented by Iron Crown Enterprises for use in gaming. They are not part of the canon, except for yours truly and Khamul.

I didn't catch any of the Nazgul names, sorry.

I know it's only I.C.E., Some of them aren't excactly Tolkienesque are they (Wraw of Waw and Ren the Unclean?).
Thanks Hercco! |

That link is not good! I've got that game and do not feel it has anywhere the depth that Middle Earth CCG has!

Here's another question for those of you who liked the Middle Earth CCG:
The Nazgul in the original 'The Wizards' game all had helmets in the style of animals. For example: Indur had an elephant helm, the witch king had a squid. What did the others have, was Khamul the Wolf helm? The Witch King of Angmar: Squid Khamul The Easterling: Wolf? Indur Dawndeath: Elephant Uvatha The Horseman:? Akhorahil The Seer: ? Adunaphel The Silent: Hawk Hoarmurath Of Dir (thanks Hercco): ? Ren The Unclean: ? Wraw of Waw: ? |
